Wow. You look fabulous! Seriously, you could be a fitness (or any type of) model. The swelling has gone down, and your workouts, combined with Dr. Fisher's artistry show your feminine, but fit, shape. How are you liking your legs post- spiral thigh lift? (I'm having one in a couple months. Any tips appreciated.)

3 months post-op: at home "after" pics

These are the best I could get...hopefully I'll have the ones from my doctor soon! Unfortunately, I missed my 3 month post-op...so this is all I have for now! I still have some fluid retention underneath my breast, as well in my lower abdominal area.

You look sensational. Can't wait to see the before pics because your body honestly looks so natural, like you were blessed to have an incredible physique. Congrats! xx
Thank you! But, no...I had hanging belly skin from my weight loss and deflated breasts. However, I do weight train 5-6 days a week. Cardio 2-3 days a week. Hopefully, I'll have the before pics soon! Thanks, again!!!
The picture of your bottom looks great. I have a consult with Dr. Fisher in November. I sent pictures and talked to him for an hour. He seems very different than the other 4 or 5 surgeons I spoke with. Not a cookie-cutter surgeon that does the same thing for everyone. He was evaluating my photos and thinking through some things as we were speaking. I'm anxious to see what he can do. I am 5'3 and weight 122 to 128. Never a gastric by-pass patient, just really saggy skin. Never weighed more than 155 and that was delivery date when I was pregnant. I don't know what happened as I look like I've lost 85 pounds.
Can you speak to me about how long you had to stay in San Antonio? How long were you off work? What size were you before and what size are you now? You look super small.
Hi there! I'm glad you found Dr. Fisher because I truly believe he has the best interest of the patient at the heart of his business. I stayed 2 nights, had the option of a 3rd night, but chose to return home. I had a 2 hour commute, but was completely drugged and I was able to sleep through the whole thing. Fortunately, I don't work during the summer, so I didn't need to take time off of work because I scheduled my surgery at the beginning of summer break. If I had taken time off, I would say (based on my experience and on the number of surgeries I had) you need a MINIMUM of 4 weeks off. However, even at the time, I would have returned moving slowly, not fully upright, and still not able to lift or pick up anything more than a few pounds.

Previously, I was a size 18. Lost weight. At the time prior to surgery, I was 6/8, sometimes a 10 (depending on brand and fit). Now, I'm a size 4/6. Panties from Soma and Victoria's Secret are a small. Bras from Victoria's Secret are a 34 DD. I still have swelling, but at 3 months post-op, it is nothing compared to what it was at the beginning. And I'm loving my results!
Hello, thank you for your information. I'm planning on having a spiral thigh lift only with Dr Fisher and curious about your recommendation of 4 weeks off work minimum. This is unfortunately not an option for me with my job so I was wondering if you thought 3 weeks would be a sufficient length of time to have off work (I think this is the most I'll be allowed, and will have to travel in this time). Otherwise I will have to lie to my work that I have broken a bone or something which I'm quite uneasy about! Thank you xx
It really depends what kind of job you have. If you have a sit down type of desk job, I'm sure you can manage. However, you will be moving slowly. Mind you, I had a full body lift, full tummy tuck, spiral thigh lift, and breast augmentation at the same time. So, my telco was a lot harder. If you're getting only a spiral, then recovery might be a lot easier on you. Good luck! I recommend you talk to Dr. Fisher about it and see what he suggests. We often communicated over email. He responds within a day usually. Again, hoping for the best for you!
Girl u look awesome you are my inspiration. I just got in touch with Dr fisher that's what I have been looking for, & price is amazing. For less than that I was quoted 30,000.00 in houston. I can't wait.. Thank you Thank you Thank you...
Good luck!
You look amazing! Thank you for posting your story! I am having multiple procedures done at once and was getting nervous that I couldn't find anyone in the same boat! My surgery is set for Oct. 21st. I will be getting an abdominoplasty with butt lift, mastopexy, and brachioplasty! Yikes! So excited and nervous at the same time!!
I hope your surgery went well! It's going to be a tough road, but DEFINITELY worth it's!
I agree that you look amazing. Congratulations on doing your homework and finding a qualified doctor and also for all your hard work in the gym. I had a thigh lift over the summer and I would allow AT LEAST 4 weeks for recovery, especially in the event of any complications, which are quite probable with a thigh lift… stitches can open up, there can be serums, edema, etc. I wouldn't go ahead with such a serious operation with a window of only 3 weeks. It's best to err on the side of caution.
seromas, not serums
Congrats on your amazing results! Your doctor did a great job with incisions and contouring! I have a lower body lift scheduled for next month and a little nervous about what to expect with results.
You know, there is no such thing as perfect results, but Dr. Fisher got pretty close. I love my results overall. It is DEFINITELY a vast improvement from before surgery and post massive weight loss. I wish you the best of luck! I'm sure you're going to look fabulous!!!
It's so important to find a Doctor who is well versed with previously heavy patients a
s they require so much more than others who just need a simple lift. Turns out Dr. Fisher will be doing some revision work on my Lower Body Lift that I went elsewhere for....Making the correct choice to begin with saves so much in time and energy not to mention costs!
Awesome! Good luck!
Wow I have no clue how I have missed your review prior to today? Simply awesome results and I daresay "signature" Dr. Fisher at his best!
Thank you!

Here is the picture!

I couldn't figure out how to edit my update and add the picture! So, I'll try again.

On another note, I will post my 3 month post-op pics taken by my doctor in a little less than 5 weeks. So, sorry for the home version pic--for now.

You look AMAZING! Could you please post a before pic. You look so perfect now I can't imagine that you would have had anything to even fix.
I see my doctor in 4 weeks. I'm hoping to get before pics from him because I refused to take and keep any from before. THANK YOU FOR THE COMPLIMENT!!!
Haha! I can totally relate. I have some on my phone and I can't bear to look at them when that photo album pops up. l'll hopefully be doing mine in the winter with Dr Fisher also.
You said you had a spiral thigh lift - did that include the long vertical incision down the inside of the leg? I'm very anxious to have the spiral with the long incision and wondered that - if you had that too - are you pleased with the scar placement so its really only visible when walking? Also - do you live in San Antonio or did you have to travel? I'd really like to go to Dr. Fischer but live in Memphis; trying to determine if I want to travel. Thanks so much for any info you can share! You look fantastic and can't wait to see additional pictures!
leelegett, that's exactly what Dr Fisher will be doing for me...trust me after having several mishaps when it comes to where to have surgery, you will be delighted you made the decision to travel to see Dr. Fisher. Most of us do travel to have this surgeon do our surgeries. I will be staying at a local hotel right by the hospital and his offices, the type of hotel with a little kitchen and one that offers breakfasts and even a light dinner during the week.
The spiral thigh lift incision is along your groin. The vertical thigh lift is in the inside of your thighs, anywhere from mid-thigh to the knee, or--even more aggressive--past your knees. It depends on the severity of the lack of elasticity in your legs. The spiral is the least aggressive and does not remove as much skin as the verticle. I only live a couple of hours from San Antonio, so travel wasn't that bad (plus, I was on awesome pain drugs!). Checkout his website and shoot him an email. He is really good at responding. Look at the pics while you are there. I love him, love his work and I feel ABSOLUTELY BLESSED to have found him. Several of my girlfriends have undergone plastics and have had less than satisfactory results. In fact, one of them will be undergoing surgery with Dr. Fisher to fix what her previous surgeon botched. I think he is worth the travel.
Thank you!
Why am I not seeing any pictures? (other than the one where you have a heart in front of your face)

Adding some at home afters...the best I could take anyway!
